Slingshot makes my brain hurt.

There's a couple really cool pieces of information here that remind me of a couple of things. I was listening to a lecture from a local S&C guy who is currently working a lot with football players (CFL level, if that means anything to anyone) and a couple of upcoming olympic athletics women...

@Brychanus Figured I'd just tag you instead of making a huge quote chain. Happy to contribute where I can here. With the obvious caveat that like anything, I'm only one person in the S&C world and there are going to be people more educated than me in that field, blah blah blah. That said: The...

Went through the videos last night. As a former MTG geek in high school/early college, the Pat Chapin cameo popped me pretty good. Production quality is fantastic. I also appreciate the intent to make the actual learning tool as simple as possible. (Not the language throughout the page, but the...

I was watching Bodanza's video from the last few days here (I don't know when it was released, I watched it yesterday though) where he was with his S&C coach. That coach said a line that really resonated with me. 'The muscles dictate the mechanics'. I may be paraphrasing slightly. The idea being...

D1 heptathlete at one of the best track and field colleges in the country. That's the short answer.

Haha so true. I've got a couple of those types of athletes right now in the track world turning some heads up north here, and a couple coaches from other provinces have suddenly become very interested in what we're doing. I laugh and have to tell them the kids pretty much walked in off the...

Does that count as saying his name? Does me quoting you count as the second time? Because all it takes is one more requote and then mission accomplished.

Very important point. A mentor coach of mine had a very simple (simple, not easy) guide to determine when it was appropriate to make biomechanical modifications. It was a 2 answer series to the question "should I change this". Question 1: Is what the athlete is doing now going to lead to injury...

Hahahah yeah.... I felt silly even writing that disclaimer, but y'know. It's nice to be nice lmao.

I realize this may slightly derail the thread, but this is sparking an interesting convo note to me. In a lot of sports we see and hear all the time of truly elite people with "bad" form. This is usually accompanied by "How much better could this person be if they just learned to do X". I think...

IPF/USAPL or the 'monolift' feds as I call em lol? (I used to be an IPF type guy up here in Canada, which, at the time was by far the majority of people competing. I'd say we were a bit ahead of the times in the trend shift to raw lifting and ditching equipment. Maybe we were all just cheap...

Million different things in here to pick out and look at, thanks for compiling this! Cherry picking at the end of it, Tamms spin rate compared to Jake and mason is fascinating, noticing that Albert spin didn't change when slowing down 5mph either.

So looking at both Josh's Patreon rates, and the question in the other thread that got started, thought this would be a good data collection point in terms of helping people establish fair rates and being good advocates for their own pay as coaches. For people actively coaching disc golf or...

The first time I tried a 360 I fell on my ass and yeeted it a mile high in the wrong direction. Had some velocity behind it though 😂
